I have an 11' hex poly asym in with 2QZQ at the moment... adding center pole pockets. Total distance is 114" (width + pockets).
I'll be going with aluminum poles. I already considered carbon and fiberglass, but haven't had great luck with those types in some of he colder areas I like to frequent.
Questions being:
1. What diameter pole should I go with? I "have" enough of .335" to make one up, but don't know if that's going to be strong enough. Options would include going up to .344", .355" or .380", but I think .380" would be overkill. Thoughts?
2. With a 70D poly tarp is there going to be enough stretch that I should add an inch or 2 to the pole length?
TIA for any insights.
